Where can I find myself a boost take off adaptor? In my head I know exactly what I want, but no idea what they're called or where to get one

Whilst we're all here, can anyone link me to an egr blank

The one I posted is good if you don't have a tapping set.

They're about £3 each on ebay for the inlet side.
I bought this pair for complete EGR removal though - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/EGR-blanking-K...19d4650c72

But if he only wants one for the inlet side it's considerably cheaper than £8... We don't all have random lumps of metal hanging around either.
On another note though, I'm not sure how long 1mm plate will last. I've bought many EGR blanks over the years and not had any that thin.

I have used the egr pipe clamp ontop of a 1mm plate with a gasket. Which has to be better than the lack of a gasket when I took the pipe off!!

Ah ok, fair enough, should be alright then.
No EGR gasket? Probably explains the whistle lol...

Oh right.
No O ring, just the silicone joiner with a jubilee each end if its the same as the 306, not sure if it is though!
